Welcome to Algiers Lyrics

Somebody pull the trigger
We are in business now
We'll make a killing man

I don't know why we're hated
Yeah, we got problems too
It's only filthy land

Another worthless malcontent
Another savage
Another day without regret
And all this damage

I don't feel any younger
I need someone to blame
I don't know what to wear

It's always so confusing
When lives are being destroyed
Never been anywhere, nowhere

Another worthless malcontent
Another savage
Another day without regret
And all this damage

Holy rollers, nobody's convinced
They're folding up the tents and taking off

AD, HD, over medicate
Nothing's complicated when you're lost
And we're lost

Another worthless malcontent
Another savage
Another day without regret
And all this damage

Cover art for Welcome to Algiers lyrics by Helmet

A little research helped me to elaborate my interpretation of this lyrics. Algiers is a huge financial, corporate, commercial and cultural center. Page Hamilton talks about urbanization and destruction of resources.

"I don't know why we're hated Yeah, we got problems too It's only filthy land", a justification to expand the business.

"Another worthless malcontent Another savage Another day without regret And all this damage", the discontent of the population in relation to the damages caused by the growing economy.
